Lightening The Mass as You Ascend

I guess that people just develop certain mannerism in sub-cultures. People who are into sports... or soldiers (and army veterans who secretly wish that they could have stayed in the army forever). People also change the way they speak and act according to different situations.

 

So maybe there are a few common ways for people to talk about music related issues - and one of these ways sounds more or less like Jack Black?

Strange indeed.. I have an archaic but simple theory; bare with me. At the dawn of the time during the first major evolutionary transitions from cro-magnon to homosapien there spawned a single man imbued with uncanny musical abilities. Despite the extremely primitive nature of society (if you can call it that) this one man was conjuring up music with rhythm and harmony bearing striking resemblances to the popular western theory of today. However, the peers of this man deemed him too powerful. His musical genius bore him with powers of influence that were simply too much for a single man to wield. After a brief committee a seance was commenced and the shamans of the early tribes separated this being into ten different host. The only catch? Though the musical talent had been dispersed evenly, the personality of the original host was copied nuance for nuance and did not change a bit between each new man. The tribes grew restless as to how to solve the problem as it was not in their interest to have ten of practically the same people in one community. So, after a brief council was held it was decided to release each of the new hosts into different regions of the Earth. 5000 Years Later: As predicted the separate men thrived in their communities and their ancestry lived on, spawning copy after copy of the same musical masters.. and personalities.

I believe this is a very interesting way of saying the true musical spirit started at one person in the beginning.

Though different faces, color, gender......the basic inside flame is un changed..

That is what i get at least

I believe you could interpret that way and I am happy to see someone making some sense out of this insanity.  I just think of it as a funny, make believe story to explain why there are all these musicians who seem to have this "Jack Black" personality haha.
